How does the ocean influence climate?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>

Answer:

Gravity provides a downward force, resulting in the diver going downward. They speed up like any falling object would, the pull of gravity is a dominant force. (There is a drag force – as a result of moving through the air.)

Biologists use optical tweezers to manipulate micron-sized objects using a beam of light. In this technique, a laser beam is foc

vekshin1

Answer:

Explanation:

Part A) Using

light intensity I= P/A

A= Area= π (Radius)^2= π((0.67*10^-6m)/(2))^2= 1.12*10^-13 m^2

Radius= Diameter/2

P= power= 10*10^-3=0.01 W

light intensity I= 0.01/(1.12*10^-13)= 9*10^10 W/m^2

Part B) Using

I=c*ε*E^2/2

rearrange to solve for E= $\sqrt{$ ((I*2)/(c*ε))

c is the speed of light which is 3*10^8 m/s^2

ε=permittivity of free space or dielectric constant= 8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1

I= the already solved light intensity= 8.85*10^10 W/m^2

amplitude of the electric field E= $\sqrt{$ (9*10^10 W/m^2)*(2) / (3*10^8 m/s^2)*(8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1)

---> E= $\sqrt{$ (1.8*10^11) / (2.66*10^-3) = $\sqrt{$ (6.8*10^13) = 8.25*10^6 V/m

the hydrometer with the density of liquid to be 800 kg metre per square is the volume of the submerged part of the hydrometer is

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Mass = 0.04 Kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Density = 800 kg/m³

Volume = 5 * 10^{-5} m³

To find the mass of the object;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the formula;

$Density = \frac {mass}{volume}$

Making mass the subject of formula, we have;

$Mass = density * volume$

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

$Mass = 800 * 5 * 10^{-5}$

Mass = 0.04 Kg
